a turbo is a very old and used design.. some one has to come up with something to make them even better again.. Just like cams.. block to over head.. then VVT, Vtec.. all makes a good thing better. Just watched it.. Bloooooooody good movie, they have what looks to be Vtec also.. on a boxer motor.. New WRX with Vtec y0! Even says autos are faster.. That will get up the noise of most street commies web users. Put all there power and all the other gearbox and other automatic hardcore shi t into a decent looking car you have a seller!

New WRX with Vtec y0! the o6 wrx runns the same cam system on the inlet valves just as the 05 onwards 6 cylinder subaru motors, trick set up and quiet a noticlbe difference when the system fails and it only runs of one of the three cam lobes

geeze that was a good documentary... felt like a movie trailer!! very impressive stuff from the germans... cant wait for the VL version :P also, just an observation with those electrically controlled veins... how will they not leak any gasses? the shafts on them will have to rotate, hence will need clearance...
